Carnevil is a pretty neat game. Pre rendered on rails shooter. I use to play this game lots when it came out. I usually see these games for around $700-800. There are lots of them around.

I see them retail for $800-1000 I've seen them from collectors for 400-600. Also remember that asking price is not the same as what they sell for.

I don't have one because I don't have room for it right now and I can play it quite well in MAME.

Here is an ebay posting to one.

I know how you feel , I ran outta room in my garage to store three classic cars so I now rent space to keep two of them.
But if I caught a nice deal on a 1958 impala id make room for that car .
Do me a favor ian, show me the light guns you use with mame .. do a vid of you playing it with them while you are at it.
Ian , you really need to stop 1 upping people here on the forums its really getting annoying.
My favorite part is how you installed a fastpac kit on your pac man and said I had no clue what you did lol.
what does that just plug in? lol
Not all of us are poor , we can buy machines we really like without looking for sidecuts.
Not all of us live in PA  and not all of us get the deals on CS like you do.
Besides why the hell would I wanna pay freight from CA , then deal with it when it gets messed up in shipping
when I can just buy the damn thing lol.  I really want that carnevil  machine. I have my reasons for it.
Next time just be happy for me.. would that hurt?

I dont play with light guns because I don't need to but If I wanted to play with light guns I could always buy one, they work just fine. Using a mouse is good enough for me since these games have pretty limited replay value even though I would love to have one. Its completely possible to run out of room and not be able to make room.

You need to calm down, seriously. Just because I dont like over spending for games does not make me poor and who cares how much money I make? I'm happy for everyone who gets games i just like letting them know what things are worth since there are good ways to find that out. I'm not sidecutting, i am just not an idiot and I know how to wait if I think something is over priced. Good for you that you think the game is worth $1000. I'm happy for you that you can afford dropping 1k any time you feel like it. But you seriously are the only one that seems to get upset here.

P.S. The pacman mod is not a "fast pac kit"
